Namespace: System.Data.Linq
Assembly: System.Data.Linq (in System.Data.Linq.dll)

Syntax

Visual Basic (Declaration)

Public Sub Resolve ( _
    refreshMode As RefreshMode _
)

Visual Basic (Usage)

Dim instance As ObjectChangeConflict
Dim refreshMode As RefreshMode

instance.Resolve(refreshMode)

public void Resolve(
    RefreshMode refreshMode
)

Visual C++

public:
void Resolve(
    RefreshMode refreshMode
)

JScript

public function Resolve(
    refreshMode : RefreshMode
)

Parameters

refreshMode: Type: System.Data.Linq..::.RefreshMode
The appropriate option from RefreshMode.

Remarks

The following examples show what results are produced by using the various values for RefreshMode.

Examples

The following example overwrites current values with values from the database.

Visual Basic

Dim db As New Northwnd("...")

Try
    db.SubmitChanges(ConflictMode.ContinueOnConflict)

Catch ex As ChangeConflictException
    Console.WriteLine(ex.Message)

    For Each occ As ObjectChangeConflict In db.ChangeConflicts
        ' All database values overwrite current values.
        occ.Resolve(Data.Linq.RefreshMode.OverwriteCurrentValues)
    Next

End Try

Northwnd db = new Northwnd("...");
try
{
    db.SubmitChanges(ConflictMode.ContinueOnConflict);
}

catch (ChangeConflictException e)
{
    Console.WriteLine(e.Message);
    foreach (ObjectChangeConflict occ in db.ChangeConflicts)
    {
        // All database values overwrite current values.
        occ.Resolve(RefreshMode.OverwriteCurrentValues);
    }
}

The following example shows how to swap the original value with the values retrieved from the dtabase. No current value is modified.

Visual Basic

Try
    db.SubmitChanges(ConflictMode.ContinueOnConflict)

Catch ex As ChangeConflictException
    Console.WriteLine(ex.Message)

    For Each occ As ObjectChangeConflict In db.ChangeConflicts
        ' No database values are merged into current.
        occ.Resolve(Data.Linq.RefreshMode.KeepCurrentValues)
    Next

End Try

try
{
    db.SubmitChanges(ConflictMode.ContinueOnConflict);
}

catch (ChangeConflictException e)
{
    Console.WriteLine(e.Message);
    foreach (ObjectChangeConflict occ in db.ChangeConflicts)
    {
        //No database values are merged into current.
        occ.Resolve(RefreshMode.KeepCurrentValues);
    }
}

The following example keeps the current values that have been changed, but updates the other values with database values.

Visual Basic

Try
    db.SubmitChanges(ConflictMode.ContinueOnConflict)

Catch ex As ChangeConflictException
    Console.WriteLine(ex.Message)

    For Each occ As ObjectChangeConflict In db.ChangeConflicts
        ' Automerge database values into current for members
        ' that client has not modified.
        occ.Resolve(Data.Linq.RefreshMode.KeepChanges)
    Next

End Try

' Submit succeeds on second try.
db.SubmitChanges(ConflictMode.FailOnFirstConflict)

try
{
    db.SubmitChanges(ConflictMode.ContinueOnConflict);
}

catch (ChangeConflictException e)
{
    Console.WriteLine(e.Message);
    // Automerge database values for members that client
    // has not modified.
    foreach (ObjectChangeConflict occ in db.ChangeConflicts)
    {
        occ.Resolve(RefreshMode.KeepChanges);
    }
}

// Submit succeeds on second try.
db.SubmitChanges(ConflictMode.FailOnFirstConflict);
